Don’t waste money the place that really need cameras is the RBZ. That’s where the people who really break the law are.

Then What? Lets start by fixing all the traffic lights that are not working, patch potholes, uninterrupted supply of clean water, fix sewage overflowing in ghettos, collection of refuse, the list is endless and there you are prioritizing cameras.
